Pros

Compressed Work Week and good pay for area if you can get promoted. Company is very good about promoting from within. You can make a good deal of career progress without a degree. Unfortunately when the chip market is down jobs are shed, leaving it hard to find comparable work with no degree.

Cons

Effort is rewarded much more than results. Extra hours for salaried production is expected, even if there are no projects to work on. You also have a wide range of management ability and styles within a relatively small organization. Management changes with the wind and you end up having 5-6 different direct supervisors within a 2 year span.

Pros

Excellent benefits, including: full insurance, stock purchase plan at 15% discount, ample paid time off. Onsite family healthcare.

Cons

Poor base pay, especially relative to local CoL and equivalent positions overseas (Micron pays 2x base salary of equivalent role vs. Samsung/Hynix in Asia, but 0.5x in America). Dysfunctional workplace driven by internal politics rather than yield/engineering cycles. Technicians are effectively forbidden from promotion or salary increase. Layoffs are frequent and merciless.
